    "So dreamy" ? It's one of the sadest most gut wrenching songs ever written, damn it all to hell. Every time I hear it I cry and think where is she what is she doing. Listen to the lyrics. "Nights in White Satin never reaching the end" reference to the sheets she bought him as a gift just before she dumped him. "Letters I have written never meaning to send " With 20 versions in the trash he never mails the letter to try and win her back. Why? "Just what the truth is I can't say anymore" "Gazing at others some hand in hand" Seeing others in love just brings back the pain. "Just what I'm going through you can't understand ".

    This was first done 57 years ago, maybe your grandparents listen to it . some versions have a poem inserted in the performance that is read by the keyboardist, the drummer wrote the poem
    Late Lament
    Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
    Watch lights fade from every room.
    Bedsitter people look back and lament,
    Another day's useless energy spent.
    Impassioned lovers wrestle as one.
    Lonely man cries for love and has none.
    New mother picks up and suckles her son.
    Senior citizens wish they were young.
    Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
    Removes the colours from our sight.
    Red is grey and yellow white,
    But we decide which is right
    And which is an illusion.
    Graeme Edge
    The Moody Blues

    this is the closing track from the moody blues concept album Days of Future Passed which about a day in one man's life the lyrics for the song was inspired by Justin Hayward the singer receiving a set of white satin bed sheets from a girlfriend. the song closes with a spoken poem.

      Yeah, it's never the ideal way to introduce someone to a new song. Usually, live versions lack the intricate arrangements and balanced mix of the studio versions. Add to that, most vocalists singing power diminishes as they age. So, definitely not the best version. But, as aged live sets go, this wasn't bad.

Also, I have a bit of a musical background, so I appreciate the talent and concentration necessary to recreate a studio masterpiece in a live performance -- especially so many years later, when age can take a toll on one's voice. In listening to this, I couldn't help but relive the emotions I felt when hearing this song so many years ago. What a great performance!

I to have seen nearly a 100 concerts also but consider the Moody Blues concert in 2001 with just the band at a small venue winery in Los Gatos Ca. to be my favorite of them all. Maybe 2000 people singing every word to every song. An 80 year old man to my left and the young teenager on my wife's right. We ALL sang ! Their music crosses generations. Even the Ushers were dancing in the isles. Pure Magic that night. I still have the jersey (not a tee shirt) from that night. Of course it doesn't fit any more. It must have shrunk in the wash............yah right !

Back in the day, it was usually up to Mike Pinder and his Melltron to produce many of these sounds. BUT with an orchestra the musical spectrum is covered...... Jason wrote this beautiful LOVE song in his late teens (19). Can you imagine????? Inna I saw this band back in the 1980's, it was like listening to a studio recording... It was perfect!!!! These men still have it!! Honey they have been around over one/half of a century!!! Please explore their catalog more!!!! Thanks.....

    In 1965 The Moody Blues were one of the favourite bands of The Beatles and they used to hang out in London (at The Scotch of St James club). When Paul McCartney was putting Wings together after The Beatles split up, he asked Denny Laine (who passed recently) who had been in The Moodies originally to help him get his new band going. They went on to write several songs together... Love your wonderful reactions Inna!

    Important to understand that the orchestral component was not a modern-day addition to this classic song; the Moody Blues incorporated full orchestras in their original works, quite revolutionary in the ‘60’s and early ‘70’s, including this song, where the orchestra added depth, tone, and impact to their music and also helped connect one song to the next in their albums…

      Indeed, I would posit they were the first rock group to fully incorporate orchestra music into their sound. I have always said that rock and orchestra, chorale as well, are genres of music that are a match made in heaven.

But it was one of the best shows I ever went to. The Moody Blues are a band that began in 1964 in Birmingham, England.

    ❤ Glad you have discovered these guys. This song came out in 1967-68. At that time, popular music was limited to under 2 min 30 sec on AM radio. If it was longer than that it was edited to fit the airtime. FM radio was a new medium. FM stations in an attempt to get listeners would play the album cuts with the intro and post song attachments. Bands loved that people wanted to hear these album tracks in their entirety. would cover the entire length.

      Oops, I got excited and hit send, sorry. People started doing the FM thing. Bands and fans got more of what they wanted. Album sales went up, and all the people who make money got a bigger piece of the pie. The Moody Blues were just one of the new more chilled mellow sounding rock bands out there. But everyone got into the longer length songs and even AM radio started playing longer cuts. Okay, maybe now I'm done.

    In 1967 I took my first big date to see The Moody Blues at The Fillmore East, Greenwich Village, Manhattan, NYC. Just the five guys in the band and their revolutionary Mellotron keyboard which used audio tape for every keystroke emulating an orchestra. It was a beautiful night. I was 16, she was 17 and walking across Saint Marks Place, the scene was electric. The journey on the B line subway back to Brooklyn was dreamlike, and wonderful.

So... on your own look for ...Moody Blues - Nights in White Satin/Late Lament ...and hear it all put together.

    This song was an after thought. They need to fill an album with 5 or so minutes so Justin sat down and came up with this.

    I played back your opening remarks a few times and I'm hearing you say the word Satan not Satin as in satin sheets. The song is entitled Nights in White Satin.

    The lead singers name is Justin Hayward.
    If you like this kind of music I would recommend "forever Autumn" it's another romantic song.

    True innovators of rock / popular music back in the late '60s / early 70s. There were at least three distinct waves for the popularity of this song on the radio, separated by years. It's an enduring classic. Flute and strings were relatively common in use with rock music back then, with the Moody Blues being one of the bands that helped popularize the more orchestral style.
    Another band with innovative use of orchestral instruments is the Electric Light Orchestra, better known simply as ELO. They had a lot of hits in the late 70s / early 80s.

    You should listen to their seven original albums released from 1967 to the mid 1970s.
    They created many of the most beautiful rock songs ever written.
    Many of their songs are orchestrated and used a fascinating instrument called the mellotron.

    Thank you Inna for sharing your beautiful reaction with us. Please consider "FOREVER AUTUMN" featuring Justin Hayward (guitarist & lead vocals) of the Moody Blues. The songwriter for "FOREVER AUTUMN" chose Justin Hayward because he wanted that voice from NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN.

      In 1977 composer and music producer Jeff Wayne used Forever Autumn as one of the songs in his musical adaptation of H.G. Wells 'War of the Worlds'. I had this musical as a child on a 33 vinyl (great music by the way if you look it up) years later in in the mid 2000's I had the absolute pleasure to see this childhood memory brought to life with none other than Justin singing that very same song. A memory I will never forget.

      @@AndrewinAus- I still have the "War Of The Worlds" LP. Very cool that you saw him sing it live. Gary Barlow of Take That and The X Factor, did a rendition of Forever Autumn that is decent, but nowhere close to Justin Hayward.

    One of the all time classics and one that will never get old or boring. I have it on my list to suggest to you for a reaction (or did I suggest it already?). My father bought the vinyl version way back and we played it until it was worn down. I would love to sing this at karaoke night.
